It's not that difficult ;)

cd /usr/ports/security/tor && make install clean

Make sure the tor service starts up by adding tor_enable="YES" to /etc/rc.conf.

Last but not least, configure your browser to use tor as a proxy.

security/tor An anonymizing overlay network for TCP
security/tor-devel An anonymizing overlay network for TCP
security/trans-proxy-tor Transparent proxy used to redirect TCP connections into Tor

There are packages for all ports (but not as recent as ports), so you could try 'pkg_add -r tor'.

I have to dowload these files that you wrote in security/ directory and then execute comand pkg_add -r tor ?

No, just pkg_add -r tor. Do yourself a favour and read http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/ports.html before you ask for further help.

Summary I have to execute two commands:
cd /usr/ports/security/trans-proxy-tor/ && make install clean
pkg_add -r trans-proxy-tor

And then:Make sure the tor service starts up by adding tor_enable="YES" to /etc/rc.conf

How I can check this:Required To Run: net/tsocks
Required Libraries: devel/libevent

Use either ports (source install) or packages (binary install).
